About This Item
This is the trade paperback edition of The Pacific War: The Story of the Bitter Struggle in the Pacific Theatre of World War II, part of the Classic Conflicts series published by the British publisher Salamander Books in 1999.
The American commanders conducting the war against Japan in World War II faced unique challenges. In spite of being ordered to fight a limited war until Germany could be defeated, U.S. naval and ground forces had to use their limited resources to launch an aggressive campaign to win back the Pacific islands occupied by the Japanese. Inter-service rivalry, the vast distances to be covered, and a difficult climate continually hampered operations against an overextended but dedicated enemy.
In this book, 18 military professionals examine in chapter-by-chapter fashion the evolution of the Pacific campaign, backed up by hard data and keen insights, revealing aspects of the war that will surprise many readers. See Contents photos.
Minor wear, one dogear, but the spine is very tight and all pages are clean and clear.
